(CNN)"Black Panther" star Chadwick Boseman gave his award for playing a superhero to a real hero.

The actor was accepting the MTV Movie & TV Award for best hero in a movie when he invited James Shaw Jr. to the stage. Shaw is responsible for stopping the gunman in a deadly shooting at a Waffle House in Tennessee in April that killed four people.

"Receiving an award for playing a superhero is amazing, but it's even greater to acknowledge the heroes that we have in real life," Boseman said. "So I just want to acknowledge somebody that's here today. James Shaw Jr. Where are you? Stand. If you don't know James Shaw Jr., he fought off a gunman in Antioch, Tennessee at a Waffle House. He saved lives. Come on up here."


Shaw then took the stage and Boseman handed him the golden popcorn award, "This is gonna live at your house."

Shaw was grazed by a bullet while grappling with the gunman and burned his right hand grabbing the barrel of the weapon.
Shaw also created a GoFundMe page to assist the victims of the shooting.

We should highlight financial support. I may get paid from white people. But you can’t tell me nothing when I put money into a black persons hand.

To be fair, I believe Oscar rules would prevent that from being an option.

What i said was it was lazy and insulting for Hollywood to use him for every black biopic being greenlighted.

Also not sure what that has to do with anything said in this thread.

You're such an angry midget.

But let's see how long it takes before the naysayers and race hustlers here, on the internet & YouTube chime in on Chadwick for doing this and try to diminish it.

Shit...I got tired of it. All the economic hustlers wouldn't stop saying it.

@ his comment to Roseanne.

Good for him man...Shaw deserves everything he gets. Seems humble and i'm glad it seems like he's having the time of his life.....people had already forgot the whole Waffle house situation...probably because we've had so many more mass shootings since then and we just store it in the back of memory until the next one happens.

[dbluesun]

"I think there's been so much talk online about me not wanting to do it, which is not, that's not true, but I think people are scared to do it like, somebody gave me like a halfway one like they were kind of scared to do it outside. I could tell that they were trying to do it but they didn't want to, so I think it's stopping a little bit now," Boseman told MTV.​
